The Siege of Acre Through the Eyes of a Foot Soldier
Me? I don't hate the Muselman. All's fair in love and war, and God is God wherever you find him. Hell, some believe He is a She! Don't misunderstand, our Christian knights are incredible fighters, but we don't have enough of them. And there's no open field for the Templar Charge. Where the hell is the Pope or the Kings of Europe when we need 'em? We've heard rumors for years about an alliance with the Horde. Can you imagine that! Franks and Mongols fighting side by side! The last I heard, the Pope demanded the Mongols convert and the Khan demanded the Pope and the Kings of Europe submit to him. Hell will freeze over before any of that happens. They say King Henry on Cyprus will send some fighters, but where are they? Well -- here we are; step inside, watch your step, it's time to get slam, deep drunk. If you sense death around the corner, well that's Acre, the city where dreams go to die. Remember, youâre in the Kingdom of Jerusalem -- what's left of it. -- Environmental Graffiti

Your Say
Most of the professional soldiers I know would have a lot more 'unspeakable' words in their messsage. Like' We are going to die! Bleep (repeat bleep for the next thirty lines).
At the end will be Captain Darling's last diary entry; 'Bugger'.

I had read somewhere about the Khan's offer to convert to Christianity.
FWIW: go over to The Belmont Club and see Wretchrd's antry about the burgeoning Christian Hordes in Africa.
